Hey I dont think the guy likes Corvette or any US made cars for that matter,altho he named the ZR1 the car of the year or something like that but when he road tested this thing called Atom on a track...
Man I couldn't stop laughing when he puts the hammer down.

specially the part when he goes "I am an alien"

Can that thing fly or what?

I believe Jay Leno has one. He mentioned that there's an American company that has the US rights to build them here, using a supercharged Cobalt/Ecotec engine, IIRC.

If I had the money, I'd get one, and put a faux Chaparral 2E body on it just to see the looks on peoples' faces. LOL

youre right, I think also Leno has one, Is there something he doesnt have?

Gene, I dont know if they would pisss them panties but the way this thing seem to accelerate, damn.

You take the girlfriend for a ride, accelerate like that and turn to look at her for a second and she looks like an alien wondering if this thing's gonna take off.
That has to be one hell of a thrill.

Imagine that 300+hps on a simili bike frame and what? a race car suspension.
I love the sound it makes, the supercharger whining and like he says you can see everything move on the car.

One of my neighbor has one of those »T-Rex

It a 3 wheel bike, a mix of a formula car and a bike and I think is the brainchild of one of the ingeneer of Gilles Villeneuve when he was in F1.

My neighbor belongs to a T-Rex club so almost every weekend a few of them things show up in the street at home.
One of them has a Hyabusa engine in it.
I tried one and let me tell you, this bike is a thriller.
